Book excerpt: God didn't create marriage to frustrate us, test us, or to make us feel unworthy or inadequate. He created marriage to be the most fulfilling and sacred of all human covenants. It was designed to be passionate and rewarding and to meet our deepest needs and desires. And it was meant to last a lifetime. So how do you build an indestructible marriage that is filled with passion, purpose, and excitement? In Lifelong Love Affair, Jimmy Evans shows couples how to embrace God's dream for their marriage, cultivate romance and fun, and fulfill each other's spiritual, emotional, and sexual needs. With more marriages today ending in divorces than ever before, and more young people cohabiting rather than getting married, the message of this book is sorely needed. Any married couple and anyone considering marriage will find Lifelong Love Affair an essential tool they will turn to again and again for inspiration and strength. Foreword by Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott.

Download or read book God s Love Affair with the Guilty written by J. W. Lehman and published by Health Ministry Foundation, Incorporated. This book was released on 2014-05-30 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guilt is a major problem in the world today, even among Christians. Much guilt is the result of a misunderstanding of God's true character of love. In this world, we come to expect punishment when we do wrong things. In order to avoid punishment and guilt from unacceptable behavior, many people will lie, excuse, deny, and fall victim to depression. This book reveals to those bearing a heavy burden of guilt a loving Savior who knew the fallen condition of mankind before He came to this earth to lay down His life as aransom for guilty sinners. If we view the law of God simply as a set of rules that, if broken, will condemn us in the judgment, we easily fall into a form of guilt that can leave us devastated. This book presents the law of God in a light that draws the guilty to a God who loves sinners so much that He gave us the Ten Commandments, not as something restrictive, but as wedding vows between Himself and His bride-the church. We can only remain on a continuous guilt trip if we do not understand thatChrist has already taken our sins and guilt upon Himself when He died on the cross. The penalty for our sins has been exhausted by His death, burial, and resurrection. God does not treat weak, erring sinners as they deserve, but with a grace that is greater than all our sins."

Download or read book The Father a Son a Daughter a Love Affair written by Charles R. Watson and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE FATHER, A son, A daughter, A Love Affair shares a story based upon author Charles Watson's personal testimony about God's plan for marriage for each person. There are things in life that can't be rushed, and following God's preordained plan for finding a life partner falls into that category. Each chapter of this guide carefully explores each step in the process that God follows to enable us to find a true partner of the heart— the one true marriage partner for each person. Watson also includes the pertinent scripture that supports God's plan for love and marriage. Song of Solomon states that 'many waters cannot quench love, nor can the floods drown it: no substantial amount of water can put out the fire of love that is in the heart.' When God determines that two people should come together in marriage, it is a wonderful, heartfelt event in the lives of two loving people. Watson cautions that it is not wise to rush or speed up the process, as it can lead to missteps and mistakes made in relationships that can be devastating. If the focus is on finding the best partner with God's loving guidance, a successful marriage will be the reward.

Download or read book Gay Girl Good God written by Jackie Hill Perry and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I used to be a lesbian.” In Gay Girl, Good God, author Jackie Hill Perry shares her own story, offering practical tools that helped her in the process of finding wholeness. Jackie grew up fatherless and experienced gender confusion. She embraced masculinity and homosexuality with every fiber of her being. She knew that Christians had a lot to say about all of the above. But was she supposed to change herself? How was she supposed to stop loving women, when homosexuality felt more natural to her than heterosexuality ever could? At age nineteen, Jackie came face-to-face with what it meant to be made new. And not in a church, or through contact with Christians. God broke in and turned her heart toward Him right in her own bedroom in light of His gospel. Read in order to understand. Read in order to hope. Or read in order, like Jackie, to be made new.

Book excerpt: “A groundbreaking work about race and the American landscape, and a deep meditation on nature…wise and beautiful.”—Helen Macdonald, author of H is for Hawk A Foreword Reviews Best Book of the Year and Nautilus Silver Award Winner In me, there is the red of miry clay, the brown of spring floods, the gold of ripening tobacco. All of these hues are me; I am, in the deepest sense, colored. Dating back to slavery, Edgefield County, South Carolina—a place “easy to pass by on the way somewhere else”—has been home to generations of Lanhams. In The Home Place, readers meet these extraordinary people, including Drew himself, who over the course of the 1970s falls in love with the natural world around him. As his passion takes flight, however, he begins to ask what it means to be “the rare bird, the oddity.” By turns angry, funny, elegiac, and heartbreaking, The Home Place is a meditation on nature and belonging by an ornithologist and professor of ecology, at once a deeply moving memoir and riveting exploration of the contradictions of black identity in the rural South—and in America today. “When you’re done with The Home Place, it won’t be done with you. Its wonders will linger like everything luminous.”—Star Tribune “A lyrical story about the power of the wild…synthesizes his own family history, geography, nature, and race into a compelling argument for conservation and resilience.”—National Geographic
